NAME
     ums — USB mouse driver


SYNOPSIS
     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:

           device ums
           device uhci
           device ohci
           device usb

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):

           ums_load="YES"


DESCRIPTION
     The ums driver provides support for mice that attach to the USB port.  Supported are mice with any number
     of buttons and mice with a wheel.

     The /dev/ums0 device presents the mouse as a sysmouse or mousesystems type device.  See moused(8) for an
     explanation of these mouse types.


FILES
     /dev/ums0  blocking device node


EXAMPLES
     Use the first USB mouse on the system as your console mouse:

           moused -p /dev/ums0 -t auto

     To be able to use the USB mouse under X, change the "Pointer" section in xorg.conf to the following:

           Device /dev/ums0
           Protocol Auto

     If you want to be able to use the mouse in both virtual consoles as well as in X change it to:

           Device /dev/sysmouse
           Protocol Auto
